Mullvad vpn torrenting4/4/2023 ![]() Socks5 is slightly faster but you need to trust the torrent-app/backend to not leak your IP. I'm trying to figure out if I want VPN or socks5 proxy in the feature. I have a script I run which detects the VPN local address and starts torrent client with the IP binded to, so as getting VPN-tunneling+kill-switch behaviour only for the torrent app(I used rtorrent here though, but deluge works too). I use linux though, where its much easier to setup than windows. I recently gotten PIA also and set it up like described above i,e, only for torrenting and everything else goes through normal connection. Yes indeed, though it also works fine with e.g. I'm new to Deluge, and new to using a VPN in combination with a torrent application in general. ![]() Is it correct that in order to achieve what I need, I just need to browse to Preferences > Network, and under the "interface" tab, enter the IP of my VPN provider I'm currently using? Yeah I've seen that thread, but surely there's a cleaner method to achieve killswitch functionality? I prefer to use a built in option within Deluge, rather than use a script. The above link has two methods one using iptables to restrict, and another using the openvpn UP directive to run a script starting deluge with the binded IP of the VPN and a script in a cron-job run every 5 mins to restart openvn if down. I don't know if it's 100% working by using the IP of your VPN, but in theory it should I believe, but never had a need to verify it as personally using a socks5 proxy instead of VPN(I use ltconfig plugin to enable force_proxy flag of libtorrent which is "killswitch" for proxys). In the prefs of deluge, you can bind an IP, not an interface. ![]() Mhertz wrote:There are multiple ways e.g.
